In this project you will work with a partner to create a wiki that explains

Lewis Carroll's use of wordplay in the novel Alice in Wonderland.

Here's what you have to do:


1. Wordplay in the Book
  • Record examples of the following literary terms that appear in the book.
  • You should have 3-4 examples of each type.
  • Be sure to provide the excerpt in quotes and the page number from your book.

Here are the terms:
  1. Diction
  2. Syntax
  3. Lexicon
  4. Personification
  5. Alliteration
  6. Assonance
  7. Repetition
  8. Pun

2. Wordplay in Other Places
  • Find 3 examples of word play from sources other than Alice and Wonderland and place them on the wiki.
  • Cite the work.
  • Extra credit if you post a video or sound file as your example.

3. Hypertext essay (essay with links)

  • A short three-part essay should explain why you think authors use wordplay.
  • Support your argument by linking the examples you found into the essay.
  • This will make your essay a hypertext essay.

To make the wiki, create 4 new pages:

  • Page 1: A homepage that acts as an index. It should also provide the 8 literary devices with their definitions.
  • Page 2: The wordplay examples from Alice in Wonderland.
  • Page 3: The examples of wordplay found outside the book.
  • Page 4: The wordplay essay.
